Upon learning that a demon beast capable of becoming an immortal existed up ahead, neither of them charged recklessly anymore, instead choosing to approach with extreme caution.
Jiang Li saw a misshapen, green buffalo, as large as a hill, lying under a tree. It had a copper bell tied around its neck, four eyes, four horns, an extremely large and bloated body, a distended belly, and skin stretched to the point of splitting apart with dense liquid constantly seeping out. It was incredibly hideous.
What was even more revolting was that every now and then, various kinds of demon beasts would crawl out from the cracks in its skin. These newborn demons, with eyes unable to even open, would lick the thick liquid seeping from the misshapen green buffalo. The demons would instantaneously grow from the Qi Cultivation Stage to Foundation Establishment Stage, and then leave the area.
“This… this is the source of the demon beasts!” Ming Zhong stated softly in a low voice, his tone seething with anger. His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at the misshapen buffalo, his nails digging into his palms, wishing he could kill the monster immediately.
“This is Master’s Aqing!” Yin Yang Heaven Seal exclaimed in shock. Despite the drastic transformation, it still recognized it as Dao Sect’s mount, “Aqing, it’s me, Yin Yang Heaven Seal! Where is Master?”
Moo—
The deformed green buffalo awakened startled, it’s eyes filled with bloodshot madness.
Agitated, it stomped its four hooves, carelessly crushing the demon beasts who had just drunk its thick liquid. Its focus fell solely on two of them and the seal.
Especially that talking seal!
“Is it Dao sect’s mount?” Jianq Li had once seen an imaqe of Dao Sect ascendant on a buffalo at Dao Sect. He couldn’t equate the monster in front of him with the gentle, immortal buffalo.
The misshapen green buffalo charged straight at them. Yin Yang Heaven Seal showed no fear and it chose the most offensive way to fight back. It clashed with the horns of the buffalo, producing a dull sound.
“Aqing, calm down!”
The misshapen green buffalo disregarded Yin Yang Heaven Seal and the pair began to brawl which resulted in the destruction of the landscape hundreds of miles around them.
Ming Zhong was shielded by Jiang Li and couldn’t see the fight clearly, he could only listen to the delayed combat sounds, the buffalo’s mooing, and Yin Yang Heaven Seal’s roar.
The misshapen green buffalo opened its mouth to release a beam of light, causing a destructive path stretching thousands of kilometers, even causing the earth to tremble.
Yin Yang Heaven Seal took this hit head-on, and was sent flying, covered in dust.
“Aqing, don’t force me! You know my abilities! I can control your fate!” Yin Yang Heaven Seal roared. Ming Zhong didn’t expect that uncouth Yin Yang Heaven Seal he used to mess around with could get so furious.
“Fate? Why can’t I see your fate!” Yin Yang Heaven Seal was taken aback. The buffalo before him was definitely the mount of his Master and a demon beast from the nine provinces. Even if it became Immortal, it should be able to control its fate.
But now, he couldn’t even see it, let alone control it!
With a moment of distraction, the Yin Yang Heaven Seal was knocked away by the misshapen buffalo. When it flew back, ready to have another big fight with Aqing, it found that Jiang Li had taken its place and was confronting the misshapen buffalo.
Upon their first clash, Jiang Li felt a force surpassing the Transcendence Tribulation Stage. This was undoubtedly a Divine Beast.
He used his Dharma Manifestation in the World, and strived to minimize it as much as possible, creating a gigantic figure standing hundreds of meters tall, equivalent in volume to the misshapen green buffalo.
In the process, two extra pairs of hands grew from his back, and all four hands grabbed the horns of the misshapen buffalo to toss it, hitting the tree where it had just been sleeping.
An old ring bounced out from the Tree, drawing Jiang Li’s attention.
He held the ring and discovered that a wisp of Immortal Power was seeping out of the ring. Wherever it touched the outside world, it transformed into a huge amount of spiritual energy.
“Is this… a storage ring specifically used to store Immortal Power?” Jiang Li recalled that the Immortal Elder had once mentioned that most immortals who descended to the lower realm would prepare a specially made storage ring filled with Immortal Power. This ring could only store Immortal Power, but its storage capacity was staggering, sufficient for an immortal to use for tens of thousands of years.
He was seeing this kind of thing for the first time and was slightly uncertain.
Jiang Li speculated that the rich spiritual energy here might be due to this.
He even made a bolder guess: The spiritual energy of the entire continent might have originated from this ring!
“You are the bad people who want to steal the master’s ring! Return the ring!” The misshapen green buffalo climbed up from the ground and spoke human language.
“So, you can speak? Are you Dao Sect’s mount?”
“You are the bad people who want to steal the master’s ring! Return the ring!”
“You are the bad people who want to steal the master’s ring! Return the ring!” “You are the bad people who want to steal the master’s ring! Return the ring!”
The misshapen green buffalo constantly repeated this sentence.
It speaking just now was nothing more than an obsession in its heart, and thus it could only repeat this one sentence.
“Who wants to steal Master’s ring? Aqing! Answer me!” Yin Yang Heaven Seal still thought that the buffalo had some sanity left and hurriedly asked.
“It’s no use. It’s not the Aqing you know anymore.” Jiang Li shook his head, and used all four of his hands to pummel the green buffalo.
Even if the green buffalo’s horns were smashed, it still kept repeating that sentence.
“You are the bad people who want to steal the master’s ring! Return the ring!”
Jiang Li understood, the green buffalo had been guarding this ring for thousands of years, waiting for Dao Sect to return, and it was also relying on the immortal power in the ring to stay alive until now.
Fortunately, the green buffalo had never left this place; if it had made even a single trip to the human world, the humans would have been wiped out long ago.
An enraged immortal beast wouldn’t be stopped easily, even by the Nine Provinces.
Jiang Li held the buffalo in place, the Yin Yang Heaven Seal slowly floated in front of the green buffalo’s eyes and said “Aqing” in a complicated tone. It still remembered the day, the willows were swaying gently, the breeze was warm, the stream was trickling, Aqing was sleeping under the willows, Master was leaning on Aqing, holding it and sporting a thoughtful smile.
Who knew that when they met again, everything would have changed, Aqing had gone crazy, Master had disappeared, leaving only it alone.
The Yin Yang Heaven Seal’s reflection appeared in the green buffalo’s eyes, tears mixed with blood flowed out. The tears sizzled as they hit the ground.
“Kill… me…” The green buffalo uttered weak, intermittent sounds. “Aqing, have you regained your senses?” Yin Yang Heaven Seal was delighted.
“You are the bad people who want to steal the master’s ring! Return the ring!” Aqing roared, then said again in a tone of begging, “Kill… me…”
Yin Yang Heaven Seal sighed deeply, realizing that Aqing was in pain and desperately wished to die.
It asked Jiang Li to deal the final blow and put Aqing out of its misery.
Jiang Li waved his hand and cut off Aqing’s head.
Even though the green buffalo had died, demon beasts continued to crawl out from its body. Left with no other choice, Jiang Li had to burn Aqing’s corpse to ashes.
Jiang Li formerly believed that the Heavenly Demons could only pollute the people of the Lower Realm, he never ever imagined that they could even pollute an Immortal Beast.
The body of the green buffalo had been clearly modified by the Heavenly Demons. Jiang Li sensed inside it the blood of many demon beasts, birds, mammals, there was nothing that was not included. It was a good thing that the green buffalo had the body of an Immortal Beast, otherwise with such complex and incompatible kinds of blood in its body, it would have died long ago..
